1:03 am

the fear has gone but perhaps the fear has gone by along with the fear so has any sense of security and nation building and state building so really. this is this is rooted partly as well because of the trial against those who were accused of being guilty author of the deaths at the football match so really it's also it's also you know openly said that more can control anything in egypt are currently and you can always tranquillity is twitter feed for the latest on what's going on in cairo and also that you'll find updates from about truth because report or had. washington's attempts to corner iran with sanctions against its oil industry may have been undermined by the us itself the pentagon admitted it cannot rarefied away exactly the u.s. purchased of a billion dollars worth of fuel for its operations in afghanistan in recent years
1:05 am
oh she's gonna check out now reports. three u.s. gives money to the afghan government to buy fuel for its forces now u.s. officials especially expected general for afghanistan reconstruction say they cannot verify that the fuel purchased for afghan security forces in recent years did not come from iran it could be their way of saying that it probably did cover the wrong and it could mean that the u.s. has violated its own sanctions there by letting us taxpayer dollars go to even coffers those sanctions that the u.s. has put in place not only bar u.s. companies from doing business with iran but also punish third party countries for doing business with iran but no matter how many rounds of sanctions are in effect they were never watertight even though the european union under a lot of pressure from washington stopped buying uranium oil you have a host of other countries that still do iran's biggest buyer now biggest buyers now are china india and japan and these countries are oil thirsty especially
1:06 am
china so china imports of uranium oil india's imports of iranian crude were up thirty percent according to tanker arrival data western sanctions have rains oil exports in two thousand and twelve leading to a very deep plunge in the arabian currency but continuous robust demand from its top buyers as well as the purchase of new tankers allow the red to unexpectedly boost exports late last year despite the sanctions the u.s. can't absolutely force those major economies especially china to stop buying from iran political and economic ramifications of such pressure would be significant but the u.s. government is trying their prompting those other countries to buy oil from washington's allies saudis and katori so you can imagine how happy the gulf states are about this whole new business coming in but washington is resolute to put more pressure
1:07 am
on other countries to put forward more threats like cutting them off from the u.s. banking system. so to many countries the situation starts to look more like blackmail than anything else i was regards to iran and blackmail is essentially what the us calls diplomacy which by the way is not working but washington acts to hold not only ran hostage to sanctions but the whole world which is of course creating more tension and drama from the national iranian american council says washington is addicted to punishing iran it's forgotten why it's doing it what we need to remember is that the same sions are supposed to be. protecting us national security interests the problem is that we have lost sight of what those sanctions are supposed to achieve the same ones have become sort of an interest unto themselves we've lost sight of the fact that sanctions are supposed to be sort of a tactical form of getting leverage over iran that is then used at the negotiating
1:08 am
table to try to carve out a deal to try to you know have something to offer and give and take and they become a strategic objective unto themselves if you look at the last twenty years of. u.s. policy on iran we haven't actually achieved the whole of one we've done a lot of things in terms of we continue rons economy and sort of ratcheting up the pressure but iran centrifuges are still still spinning we're on the precipice of a war and now with understand we're facing these really tough questions about can we continue to be enemies with iran and not engaging with iran while we're trying to leave afghanistan in some sort of stable fashion. so the sanctions against iran become trees leader mahmoud ahmadinejad our inspiring our website content if so check out his latest sketches and call me in the online exclusive section.

great abrasion is not that great and that's the message you came ministers plan to sons to bowl garrisons and romanians to persuade them not to move that it's all part of an attempt to break away from the policy is attracting immigrants introduced on to ten new black and take even got an award from poland for opening up britain to its citizens of the hundreds of thousands of them from oaks that. has more for us. as one official put it that a negative ad campaign about britain would help to dispel the myth that the streets in the u.k.
1:10 am
all paved with gold and the politicians certainly are worried and they've got it wrong in the past the previous year was the year of the olympics and politicians trump and trumpeting great britain and how long john in britain is the best destination the world billions of pounds poured into advertising to really sell the u.k. but it seems that for immigrants potential immigrants from rumania and from ball garia the message is that britain isn't so great after all so a lot of people used to use that sort of was quite farcical the fact that the government is willing to trash its own image and to admit that there are problems with the economy in disarray that there's a housing crisis and that there are problems with schools and hospitals everyone's been having a good old chuckle over the idea of a negative ad campaign and yes some people have actually said that it's quite insulting but remain ians them for vogue ariens but one newspaper has even suggested that people send in their own suggestions for what an anti britain poster
1:11 am
would look like and the result has been really quite scathing and quite harsh to britain as a country we've got slogans that include u.k. yuck and come to britain and clean the toilets or even britain we haven't left ourselves because the public transport isn't running so people very sort of mocking at the same time but quite scathing about the country westminster is bound by law so they have to follow these rules and they have to allow anybody who wishes to come over in twenty fourteen to enter the country but a lot of citizens in the u.k. feel that it's insulting to those people and a waste of money having advertised britain previously. so remaining by tempting brits that a daily newspaper has launched its own campaign in response to negative ads in the u.k. like this one apparently advertising remaining in women ha ha for them says

1:15 am
talking about eight thousand african troops it's not going to be further out i may say the french are very reluctant to approach the algerian front you know too closely because algeria and france as you know have a long history with general bitterness civil war i think this may well be the last chance on house to claim a victory before it all becomes obviously an allied operation and i think that's probably the main reason. and on r.t. dot com for you some chilling stories from that millions caught up in the french led conflict against islamist one family told r.t. how they were unable to bury their killed left relative for days during the intervention so find this and other reports from the ground by logging on to our website.
